Matthew 16:13-20 // Jacob Nannie

Matthew 16:13–20 records a pivotal moment in Caesarea Philippi, where Jesus asks his disciples who people say he is, followed by Simon Peter’s bold confession that he is the Messiah. Jesus affirms Peter, revealing that this truth came directly from the Father, and promises to build his church on this solid foundation so that the gates of hell will not overcome it. He also grants kingdom authority through the keys of heaven. This sermon breaks down what it means to acknowledge Jesus as King and stand firm on the rock of his identity.

Luke 11:1-4 // Jacob Nannie

Luke 11:1–4 records the moment the disciples asked Jesus to teach them how to pray, prompting him to provide the foundational pattern known as the Lord's Prayer. Jesus instructs believers to honor the father's name, pray for the coming of his kingdom, depend on him for daily needs, seek mercy, and trust him for protection against temptation. This sermon breaks down each petition to help you cultivate a deeper, more intentional prayer life rooted in daily trust and obedience.

Luke 6:43–49 // Jacob Nannie

Luke 6:43–49 contrasts healthy trees with bad trees and wise builders with foolish ones. Jesus teaches that a tree is known by its fruit, explaining that the words and actions that flow out of us reflect what is stored in our hearts. He concludes his sermon on the mount with the parable of two builders: the one who hears his words and puts them into practice builds a house on solid rock that withstands severe floods, while the one who disobeys builds on sand without a foundation. This sermon breaks down how obedience to Christ builds an unshakable life.

He then invites believers to come to him, exchange their heavy burdens for his easy yoke, and find rest for their souls through his gentle and humble posture. This sermon explores how trusting in Jesus brings true spiritual renewal and freedom.

Jonah 4:1-11 // Darrion Walker

What happens when God extends mercy to the very people you want him to judge? In this study of Jonah 4:1-11, we look at the final, messy chapter of Jonah's story. Instead of celebrating a massive spiritual turning point in Nineveh, Jonah becomes furious because God is gracious, compassionate, slow to anger, and filled with love. This sermon explores our own struggles with bitterness, how we can fall into the trap of wanting mercy for ourselves but judgment for others, and the lesson of the fading plant that God uses to challenge Jonah's perspective. Join us as we look into the mirror of this passage and confront the radical nature of God's love for a broken world.

Haggai 2:1-9 // Gabe Coyle

Have you ever looked at what you are building or working on and felt like it completely pales in comparison to the past? In this study of Haggai 2:1-9, we look at a community of people who were discouraged because their new temple looked like nothing compared to the glory of Solomon's original temple. God meets them in their disappointment with a powerful command: be strong and work, because my spirit remains with you. This sermon explores how God promises to shake the heavens and the earth, bring the wealth of nations into his house, and make the future glory of his people far greater than anything they had seen before. If you feel discouraged by small beginnings or weak results, this message will give you the strength to keep going.

Amos 5:1-24 // Gabe Coyle

What happens when religion becomes just an empty show? In this study of Amos 5:1-24, we face a stark warning given to people who were going through all the right religious motions while ignoring the poor and twisting justice. This sermon breaks down why God hates empty rituals when hearts are far from him, and what it truly means to "seek the Lord and live." Discover the weight of the day of the lord and hear the famous, roaring call to let justice roll down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream. If you want to understand what true, lived-out faith looks like to a God who demands justice, this message is a direct and powerful challenge for our lives today.
